About Janice

Janice Harbin is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with three decades of experience in mental health care.

Background and approach

She began her career working with children and adolescents and over time shifted to focus primarily on adults, bringing long-term clinical experience to concerns such as stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, grief, depression, and ADHD.

Her practice also includes a broad range of related areas, from relationship and family issues to eating and sleeping difficulties, career challenges, and coping with life changes. Janice draws on evidence-informed methods including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered approaches, as well as mindfulness and motivational interviewing techniques.

She has provided services in outpatient settings and collaborated with psychiatric providers when appropriate, and previously participated on a drug court treatment team. Janice integrates her clinical skills with a values-oriented perspective and respects each person’s life story while helping identify underlying problems that contribute to symptoms such as addiction.

Outside of work she enjoys outdoor activities like biking and walking and values time with her family, kids, and grandchildren. She offers supportive, pragmatic guidance aimed at helping people navigate difficult seasons and move toward practical, meaningful changes.

Therapeutic approaches and online delivery

Janice commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. ACT focuses on clarifying personal values and building psychological flexibility, helping people move toward meaningful action even when uncomfortable thoughts or feelings are present. CBT targets patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to symptoms, offering practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, and many stress-related concerns.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will work with clients to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, adjusting methods over time so therapy remains aligned with each person’s needs and life circumstances.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and choose the communication style that best supports an individual’s progress.
